I am in the works of deleting my Tumblr because of reasons. First and foremost, I haven't been able to gain access to the account via a non-mobile browser so I'm not able to post book reviews (which is the sole reason I'm here anyway). I also have been gaining an enormous amount of followers over the past few months, and don't get me wrong, thank you all for joining me, but I honestly don't feel like I deserve you considering I am scarcely posting anything these days (due to reason #1). I do have a WordPress that I post book reviews on and have linked it. If any of you would like to see what I've been reading, feel free to check out the blog. It's been a good 3+ years on here. I've met some wonderful people who write incredible reviews. It's all thanks to you for making me add so many books to my to-read list! I am definitely not going to stop reviewing books anytime soon; I'll just be on a different platform. :) -- Syl
#so long#farewell#to you my friend#goodbye#for now#until we meet again#who knows what song I'm singing#you get brownie points if you recognize it

Oh my god. I want to read this!!!
Dark Horse Comics Lady Killer mini series (compiled into a perfect bound graphic novel edition) is written by Jamie S. Rich and Joelle Jones, and masterfully drawn by Ms. Jones herself.
The gritty (and bloody!) story deals with a Mad Men era suburban Seattle housewife who’s actually a CIA assassin.
Artist Joelle Jones explains how she playfully put together a series of vintage ad mockups while doing research for the project, shown above (with additional hand lettering by Crank). The mini-series is a dark delight, just as these playfully grim ads are. This isn’t a comics blog, of course. And Rich and Jones’ mini series won’t be for everyone. But the art is still terrific, and those ads are fun. The illustration style and typography is strictly now, but the coloring and general ‘feel’ are pure retro. And we’ll admit it: We love retro, and get a real kick out of seeing contemporary tweaks and twists of vintage 20th century design, illustration and photographic tropes. Check out more of Jones work at joellejones.com.

People that drive up, come in and leave baffle me. Why the fuck do you drive to a cupcake bakery then leave because you don't want sweets ???? Did you leave your brain in the car ???? People are fucking weird

Y'all, I found these super adorable cards for $1 a pack at Target. Score! They open up lengthwise and come with cute little envelopes, too.

Hello....
I've gained 101 followers and counting over the last 34 days... and all I can say is, how? I appreciate all of you, but I haven't been running a proper blog ever since I got locked out of my account and have succumbed to using my phone app... who/what sent you here? I don't deserve your support.. I haven't posted a review since last summer! I'm just confused...

I can justify spending a lot of money at this card shop.

Yesterday I made a bookmark to match my copy of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. Maybe I should do this for all my Penguin English Library editions…
